Having stayed at Terrace Suites multiple times, both for short overnight visits and extended stays of over a week, I can say it is truly Northern Ontario's best resort. Nestled conveniently just minutes from Callander and within a short drive of North Bay, it offers unparalleled access to local activities like dining, shopping, skiing, boating, and fishing. The tranquility of the location overlooking Callander Bay on Lake Nipissing is simply breathtaking, with both stunning sunrises and sunsets.
Comfortable and Spacious Accommodations
Each suite at Terrace Suites boasts impressive features that cater to both relaxation and productivity. I enjoyed the cozy in-room electric fireplace, high-speed WiFi, HD smart TV, and the convenience of a mini-fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. The layout of the suites maximizes space beautifully, and the delightful mix of Canadiana decor with modern touches creates a warm ambiance. For larger groups, the deluxe suites with additional murphy beds or jacuzzi suites with relaxing jets add a luxurious touch. Check out each suite type here https://www.terracesuites.ca/resort
Eco-Friendly Practices and Scenic Beauty
Set on an expansive 84-acre eco-friendly property, Terrace Suites emphasizes sustainability with water conservation practices, EV charging stations, and non-toxic toiletries. The natural beauty of the area is captivating, especially when stargazing at night by the waterfront.

There are outdoor seating areas ideal for soaking up the scenic surroundings, as well as barbecues available during the summer. The proximity to Lake Nipissing means you can enjoy various water activities like swimming, kayaking, and year-round fishing. Nearby trails offer opportunities for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling.
Exceptional Service
The warm and friendly service truly enhances the stay. The staff, being locals, are knowledgeable about nearby attractions and local happenings. Their seamless online reservation system and easy check-in/check-out process made my experience even more enjoyable. With early check-in and late check-out options available for a reasonable fee, everything felt convenient.
Dining Options
Although there’s no on-site dining, I found a wealth of nearby options, including the highly-rated Churchill's in North Bay, known for its exceptional international cuisine crafted from local ingredients. For those who prefer to dine in, local restaurants offer delivery services through Skip the Dishes, making it easy to enjoy a delicious meal in the comfort of your suite.
More Than Just a Stay
Terrace Suites offers a myriad of activities to enjoy right on the property, from bonfires at the outdoor fire pit to complimentary board games. I loved learning about local events such as the farmer’s market and seasonal festivals like Winter Bluesfest and Hot Summer Night Music Festival. The wildlife on the property, especially the variety of birds, adds to the charm and makes it perfect for nature lovers and birdwatchers alike.
Value and Quality
My stays at Terrace Suites have consistently outperformed my experiences at other resorts/hotels in the North. The combination of well-renovated and spacious suites, convenient central location, along with reasonable pricing, makes it an unbeatable choice.
Tips for Future Guests
If you're considering a stay, here are a few tips: prepare for fluctuating temperatures by packing layers, ensure you have directions loaded into GPS as service can be spotty, and take the time to soak in the peaceful ambiance and gorgeous views.
